5.0 out of 5 stars I was there., November 30, 2005

This review is from: Disciples of the 36 Chambers (Audio CD)

It is impossible to convey in a review what the experience of this show was and, for those in attendance, still is. Let me paint the picture: It was a cold night, but inside the venue, it was hot and sticky as Atlanta in the Summer. This was the first ever Rock the Bells shows and the line up promised a reunion of the entire Wu-Tang for the first time in 10 years. The place was filled to capacity, standing room only almost as big as a football field. I was up front and it felt like I was at a metal show the way the crowd was swaying. Supernatural did his thing, Nu-Mark and Chali Tuna handled theirs, Eyedea, with a broken arm, & Abilities ripped it , Sage Francis basically got booed off the stage, Dilated took a long time to get to their hit song and Redman nearly caused a fire with his performance. Then the wait began. Over an hour we stood their with background music, swaying like ripples in an ocean. Sway took the stage, attempting to quell the crowds doubts about the Wu even showing up. For a half an hour, poor Sway stood in front of the lions. People started shouting, " F--k Sway, f--k MTV." Sway snapped and disappeared. Then he came back and finally announced who we all came to see. The tail end of his address can be heard at the beginning of the disc. The lights shut out and there they stood: the Rza, the Gza, Ol' Dirty Bastard, Inspectah Deck, Raekwon the Chef, U-God, Ghostface Killah and the Method Man. Whomever complained about these guys finishing each other's lines is a toy. You could see the mutual respect and admiration in the eyes of these cats as they looked at each other. It wasn't some anonymous Wu side-project cat finishing someone's line, it was Meth, it was Ghostface, it was all of them. The DVD and CD are consolation prizes for those of you who could not be there, be grateful they were released. You know these songs, you already own them. But I was there, in a sea of heads who knew all the words like me, who had been down since '92 when kids made fun of me in 6th grade because I listened to what they thought was Chinese rap. If you're thinking of getting this as an introduction or a "greatest hits", don't get it. This is for the heads that know the Wu-Tang Clan and it was the last time, and for many the only time, for anyone to experience them as a whole.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wu-Tang Clan Live In Your Hands!!!, October 3, 2004

Feel the emotion of a live Wu-Tang Clan show. This compilation not only has many hits of the Wu saga, but also contains an awsome sound quality that will make any Hip-Hop fan vibrate.
TRUST ME, YOU WILL FEEL THIS ONE!!!
This is unique, not an LP, not a best of, not a mix-tape; it is a live concert. Don't sleep on this one. Wu is definitely the best.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is what we've been waiting for!!!!, September 28, 2004

First off to the Wu-tang fans,GO GET THIS!!!
If you have never been to Wu show, then get it.
Wu-tang has been there since the begining and they aren't leaving either. The cd opens up the classic " Bring the ruckus", you can feel the crowd come alive and the clan reunite like they had never stopped performing together. Another stand out track is "Triumph" the songs lives forever because of the fact the whole clans gets to shine on the infamous beats of the RZA.

All I can say is get it, because it could be a very long time before we hear these great Mc's reunite and shine like the stars they were and always will be.
